Lookingintosecretmattersisnevereasy,norisdealingwiththebiasonemustslogthrough.Themainstreammediahave,untilrecently,barelymentionedtheGroup.Meanwhile,theBildergergGrouphasbecomeabogeymanofthefringe,wheretheirreputationmay,infact,bewelldeserved.

In1954,themostpowerfulmenintheworldmetforthefirsttimeundertheauspicesoftheDutchroyalcrownandtheRockefellerfamilyattheluxuriousHotelBilderberginthesmallDutchtownofOosterbeek.Foranentireweekend,theydebatedthefutureoftheworld.

Whenitwasover,theydecidedtomeetonceeveryyeartoexchangeideasandanalyzeinternationalaffairs.TheynamedthemselvestheBilderbergGroup.Sincethen,theyhavegatheredyearlyinaluxurious

AmongtheselectmembersofthisclubareBillClinton,PaulWolfowitz,HenryKissinger,DavidRockefeller,ZbigniewBrzezinski,TonyBlairandmanyotherheadsofgovernment,businessmen,politicians,bankersandjournalistsfromallovertheworld.

Nevertheless,inthemorethanfiftyyearsoftheirmeetings,thepresshasneverbeenallowedtoattend,nostatementshaveeverbeenreleasedontheattendees’conclusions,norhasanyagendaforaBilderbergmeetingbeenmadepublic.LeadersoftheBilderbergGrouparguethatthisdiscretionisnecessarytoallowparticipantsinthedebatestospeakfreelywithoutbeingontherecord,orreportedpublicly.Otherwise,Bilderbergersclaim,theywouldbeforcedtospeakinthelanguageofapressrelease.Nodoubt,thisdiscretionallowstheBilderbergGrouptodeliberatemorefreely.Butthatdoesnotrespondtothefundamentalquestion:Whatdotheworld’smostpowerfulpeopletalkaboutinthesemeetings?
